== Flat Earth Society activities ==
Leo Ferrari was a founding member and head of the satirical Flat Earth Society of Canada, later renamed the Flat Earth Society (FES).〔
In Ferrari's writings in support of the FES and the Flat Earth, he attributed everything from gender to racial inequality on the globularist and the Spherical Earth model.〔http://mje.mcgill.ca/article/download/7006/4948〕 Ferrari even claimed to have nearly fallen off "the Edge" of the Earth at Brimstone Head on Fogo Island.
Ferrari was a key figure in the 1990 flat earth "documentary", ''In Search of the Edge''.〔 In the accompanying study guide, Ferrari is outed as a "globularist," someone who believes the earth is spherical.〔 The intent of the film was to promote critical thinking about media by "() to prove in convincing fashion, something everyone knew to be false." 〔
